A No Mess, No Guess Window and Door Installation Day in Kansas City, KS

After you’ve purchased your
replacement windows or doors, your next step is installing the products in your home. Hiring
the right person to install your windows is just as
important as picking the right windows for your home. Is
your window or door installation a job you’ll undertake yourself, or will you save it for the professionals?

The window installation process differs by window style and product, but in every case, even the most
efficient window is only as good as its
installation. And a proper installation is the key to a more comfortable home.

To make certain you
won’t experience troubles with moisture damage or
leakage, your installation should form a watertight seal.
For instance, Pella uses its SmartFlash™ tape
around the windows and doors to manage water away from the
product and home.

A correct installation will also include
a high quality polyurethane window and door insulating foam, such as Great
Stuff™ Window and Door Insulating Foam Sealant, which will help reduce the number of drafts that can get through your new windows or
doors. Your installer should use shims in all window and door installations to ensure
your products are kept in the correct place. A variety
of other sealants should be used to help improve product life and provide a weather resistant seal.

Benefits of Working with a Professional

Though you can easily access
installation guides for any window or door
you purchase, we recommend working with
an expert to install your products. Many
professionals – including Lead Pella Expert Installers℠ in Kansas City –
are re-certified yearly, so they’re learning new techniques and best practices annually to perform the
best installation possible. Since they’ve been certified to perform Pella window and door installations, the process is easy and usually won’t take more than a day,
depending on the number of products installed.

You’ll also want to read
through your warranties or post-installation service agreements. A
number of these are not valid unless you have a professional perform
your window or door installation. This alone can save you a lot of money in the long-run and will ensure your windows stay in their
best shape for years.

The Pella Installation Process

A main characteristic of Pella’s work is
how well the installers take care of your house
throughout the installation process. For example,
they’ll lay protective cloth over your floor and wear
booties over their shoes to help prevent dirt from being tracked inside. Additionally, Pella Expert Installers are very familiar with Pella's installation methods. Working with Pella can
help you rest easy knowing that your windows and your
home are in good hands.
